Jet Washing Newcastle
Years of Newcastle weather leave a mark on every hard surface around a property: driveways, patios, roofs, and walls all pick up dirt, algae, and moss whether you notice it happening or not. We provide jet washing and wider exterior cleaning across Newcastle and Northumberland, and one thing we’re upfront about: not every surface should actually be jet washed. Some need it, others need a gentler approach, and getting that distinction right is a big part of doing this job properly rather than just pointing a pressure washer at anything outdoors.

What we cover
Different surfaces need different equipment, pressure levels, and technique, so we’ve broken our exterior cleaning services down by surface type:
- 02
Jet washing versus soft washing
High-pressure jet washing is the right tool for hard, durable surfaces like concrete, tarmac, and sound block paving, where the pressure needed to shift ingrained dirt and algae won’t damage the surface underneath. For softer or more delicate surfaces, render, some roof tiles, cladding, and solar panels among them, high pressure can do genuine damage: stripping mortar, cracking tiles, or forcing water behind seals it was never meant to get past. For these, we use lower-pressure soft washing methods instead, using appropriate cleaning solutions and gentler application rather than raw pressure to do the work. We’ll always use the right method for the surface rather than defaulting to maximum pressure because it looks more dramatic.

Why a clean exterior is worth the investment
A clean driveway, patio, or roof makes a bigger difference to how a property presents than almost any other single piece of maintenance, and it’s one of the more cost-effective improvements available, particularly ahead of a sale or simply to stop moss and algae doing gradual damage to a surface left untreated for years. Moss and algae in particular aren’t just cosmetic problems, left long enough they retain moisture against a surface and can accelerate wear, especially on paving joints and roof tiles.
- 04
Domestic and commercial properties
We clean driveways, patios, and building exteriors for homeowners and businesses across Newcastle and Northumberland, from a single driveway clean to full commercial premises exteriors.
- 05
Ahead of a sale or let
A clean exterior makes a genuine difference to how a property presents in listing photos and at viewings, often one of the more cost-effective improvements available before putting a property on the market or preparing a rental between tenants. It’s a common request we get ahead of estate agent photography, and one that reliably pays for itself in how the property is perceived from the first impression onward.
- 06
A team that knows which surfaces need which approach
The biggest risk with exterior cleaning generally isn’t a mediocre result, it’s damage done by the wrong technique on the wrong surface. Getting this right takes proper experience across different materials, and it’s exactly the kind of judgement we bring to every job rather than a single default setting turned up for every surface we come across.
- 07
What it costs
Pricing depends on the surface, the area involved, and how much build-up needs removing. We give a clear, agreed quote before starting, and we’ll tell you honestly if a surface needs a gentler (and sometimes slower) approach than standard jet washing.
- 08
Getting more than one surface done together
Most properties have more than one surface that could use attention, a driveway, a patio, gutters that haven’t been checked in a while. It’s often more efficient to have everything assessed and quoted as one visit rather than book each separately, and we’re happy to walk round the whole property and put together a combined plan covering whatever needs doing.

FAQs
- Is jet washing safe for all surfaces?
- No, and we’ll advise honestly. Hard, durable surfaces handle high pressure well; softer surfaces like render, some roof tiles, and solar panels need a gentler soft-washing approach instead.
- How often should a driveway or patio be cleaned?
- It depends on the surface and how exposed it is to shade, damp, and tree cover, but once every one to two years is common to stop moss and algae building up significantly.
- Do you offer cleaning for businesses as well as homes?
- Yes, we clean commercial premises exteriors as well as domestic properties.
- Can you clean a roof or gutters as well as ground-level surfaces?
- Yes, see our Roof Cleaning and Gutter, Fascia & Soffit Cleaning pages for more on this.
